The Women and Land Studies With respect to self-acquired land, often a married woman uses it land together with her husband, independent of whether the land was cleared by the husband or by the request and effort of the wife. In Anchilo, as elsewhere, a married couple tended to have access and benefit from land jointly, independent of whether it was from the woman’s side or the man’s side, or was rented or self-acquired by one of the spouses. However, “in accordance with customary norms”, kinship land use rights are not transferable either to or from spouses or to their children, which is also against the provisions of the Article 13 of the New Land Law which states that “the right to land and benefit may be transferred by succession, without distinction by sex”. www.law.emory.edu /WAL/WAl-studies/moz4.htm

CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: St. John the Baptist Thus Salome, Elizabeth, and the Blessed Virgin were first cousins, and Elizabeth, "of the daughters of Aaron" on her father's side, was, on her mother's side, the cousin of Mary. Mary, the oldest, married a man of Bethlehem and was the mother of Salome; Soba married at Bethlehem also, but a "son of Levi", by whom she had Elizabeth; Ann wedded a Galilean (Joachim) and bore Mary, the Mother of God. The same cannot be said of the apocryphal gospels, because the scant information they give of the Precursor is either copied from the canonical Gospels (and to these they can add no authority), or else is a mass of idle vagaries. www.newadvent.org /cathen/08486b.htm   (5324 words)

No ‘Risky Business’ for Cruise, Holmes - Gossip: The Scoop - MSNBC.com Tom Cruise’s new lady love has reportedly said that she wants to remain a virgin until she gets married. A 2003 profile of Katie Holmes in the Sunday Mirror of London discusses how “she went to cheerleading practice, got straight A grades, and made a pledge that she would remain a virgin until marriage.” But the romance is a dream of more than two decades fulfilled for 26-year-old Holmes; according to various reports, a year ago, Holmes revealed that the 42-year-old Cruise was her “first celebrity crush” and that she started pining away for him in 1983 when she was four years old and saw him in “Risky Business.” www.msnbc.msn.com /id/7682150   (576 words)

Diane C. Farr Mary Garden The prayer of consecration reads; "May nothing tarnish the glory of perfect virginity or the vocation of purity which is shared by those who are married." The consecrated virgin is favored with honoring the Mother of God in her body, since she does not suffer the loss of virginal integrity. Consecrated virginity is an exquisite manifestation of the love and tenderness Christ has for his bride, the Church, as well as the Church's total and exclusive love for her Savior and her Spouse. The consecrated virgin honors the Sacrament of Marriage for her vocation was born in and nourished by the family. www.mgardens.org /C-US-NY-EL-DCF-031104.html   (576 words)

Shoot: Virgin Cola ads nixed by TV stations Although some TV stations across the country are refusing to show certain Virgin Cola spots including one that shows a real gay couple getting married - deeming them objectionable, the flap has been widely reported in the media, with stories surfacing in the New York Post and The Wall Street Journal, among other outlets. As the Virgin Cola campaign was specifically intended to stand out from the pack, it has already fulfilled its purpose. Virgin Cola, owned by British entrepreneur Richard Branson, recently rolled out the soft drink in New York, L.A, San Diego, San Francisco, Sacramento, Boston, Washington, D.C., and Baltimore. www.findarticles.com /p/articles/mi_m0DUO/is_n32_v39/ai_21042995   (942 words)

A person is considered of illegitimate birth if he is born of parents not legally married to each other.

Amazon.co.uk: Heresie [Remastered]: Music The musical similarities between the bands are tenuous however, while U2 seemed to be pre-occupied with `Echo and the Bunnymen` records like `Crocodiles` and American college radio, The Virgin Prunes had a theatrical element which they married to their krautrock and post-punk influences. For a time the Virgin Prunes were dubbed "the most overtly subversive rock group ever to come out of the genre". Along with these members the band was made up by Guggi's brother Strongman on bass and several different drummers but by the time of Heresie they had settled with Mary d'Nellon. www.amazon.co.uk /exec/obidos/ASIN/B0002IJ8ZI   (995 words)

Commercial Closet Virgin Atlantic Airways was the first airline to advertise in American gay media and the company also sponsored NY's annual dragfest, Wigstock, in 1998. With a soap box that simply reads "Say Something" as the focus of the campaign for the American rollout of Virgin Cola, there are many variations of political statements and silly setups as people get on top to deliver a message. In this spot set on the California beach in Santa Monica, two middle-aged men, dressed in tuxes atop the box, are married by a woman from the Metropolitan Community Churches. www.commercialcloset.org /cgi-bin/iowa/portrayals.html?record=118   (362 words)

Here is the celebration of mystic nuptials: it is the sublimation of earthly love. www.oldandsold.com /articles11/sexlife-29.shtml   (362 words)

St Jerome on a Girl's Education: Letter CVII to Laeta As regards the use of the bath, I know that some are content with saying that a Christian virgin should not bathe along with eunuchs or with married women, with the former because they are still men. But with the virgin and the monk the case is different; for, when these give the rein to their steeds, they have to remember that for them the race knows of no intermission. Remember both of you that you are the parents of a consecrated virgin, and that your example will teach her more than your precepts. www.umilta.net /jerome.html   (362 words)

NOSTRA — 'BIZARRE NEWS' N° 584, 1983 Subsequently it is Mary Magdalene that we find at the foot of the cross, in the company of Mary the Virgin, at the same moment when she has been a widow for at least three days. The Christians always were in danger of forgetting to ask themselves whether the founder of their religion was married or not. This point of detail is only relevant today in the context of the possibility of priests getting married, but it could obviously not have arisen at a time when the priestly sacraments excluded this possibility. priory-of-sion.com /psp/id152.html   (2113 words)

Madonna : Like a Virgin (Remastered) - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect These, of course, are "Material Girl" and "Like a Virgin," the two songs that made her an icon, and the two songs that remain definitive statements. Yet, there's no discounting the best songs on the record, the moments when her grand concepts are married to music that transcends the mere classification of dance-pop. They overshadow the rest of the record, not just because they are a perfect match of theme and sound, but because the rest of the album vacillates wildly in terms of quality. www.artistdirect.com /nad/store/artist/album/0,,1149817,00.html   (280 words)

Why is Mary Considered Ever-Virgin? This doctrine is not taught for the sake of upholding the sanctity of the Virgin Mary, but because of the uniqueness and holiness of her Son. The answer is obvious: virgins do not as a rule give birth, and Christ would likely have grown up an orphan had he been born to a single mother. All accounts mention Mary Magdalene separately and Matthew mentions the mother of the sons of Zebedee (who could not also be married to Clopas). www.orthodoxinfo.com /inquirers/evervirgin.aspx   (2841 words)

Government of the British Virgin Islands - NIDS : Public Consultation Document There was an increase from 1980 to 1991 in the proportion of unmarried youths in the British Virgin Islands and a consequent decrease in the percentage of married youths. Population changes in the British Virgin Islands were extraordinary during the intercensoral period 1980-1991 and this lead to a technical co-operation study to attempt a prediction on the various population variables. With the growth of the British Virgin Islands’ older population and the increased geographical spread and mobility of families, the requirement for home-based services is expected to further increase. dpu.gov.vg /Plans/NIDS/Aging.htm   (12660 words)
